Fresh Fiction Review

If You Knew My Sister
Michelle Adams

Reviewed by Patti Loveday

Suspense Psychological

IF YOU KNEW MY SISTER by Michelle Adams is an addictive suspenseful read that you will not want to put down with a plot that keeps you on your toes never knowing what will happen next. I read this is book in one night because I had to know what was going to happen next and how it all was going to play out in the end. IF YOU KNEW MY SISTER is a story of intriguing family secrets that is shared between two sisters. While I was reading this novel, I had an unsettling feeling that something was going to happen or something dark is just around this corner. Adams is a writer that knows what she is doing! She writes with such a descriptive detail that makes everything seem so vividly real that it is almost scary. Each setting is described in a way that makes it easy for you to close your eyes and picture exactly what she is telling you. The characters all have detailed pasts that help to add depth to the overall story line making you feel like they are about to jump right off the page. The story is a slow and steady kind of read with nothing being fast paced. IF YOU KNEW MY SISTER is the kind of story that keeps you on the edge of your seat hoping that nothing jumps out of the book and gets you. Each page you read will pull you deeper into the story and into the minds of the main characters. The ending was so shocking for me! I did not expect the story to end the way it did. I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves a good suspense novel that will make you want to sleep with the lights on!

SUMMARY

In the vein of Ruth Ware's In a Dark, Dark Wood comes a novel of psychological suspense form debut author Michelle Adams, where a woman returns to her family's home to learn the truth and escape her sister's influence If you knew my sister, you’d run too… First there was the Robert Kneel incident.
Then what happened to Margot Wolfe.
And now she’s found me again. Dr. Irini Harringford was given away by her parents just before her fourth birthday. Although she has spent her whole life trying to convince herself she doesn't need them, deep down Irini longs to understand why she was abandoned, while her parents kept her older sister, Elle. So when Elle gets in touch with news that their mother has died, Irini reluctantly agrees to return to the family home. But she is ill at ease. She and Elle are not close. Irini knows only too well what Elle is capable of. Inexplicably drawn to her enigmatic sister, yet terrified of the sway she holds, Irini tries to protect herself even as she is sucked back into her family's toxic web of secrets...and soon realizes that the past is more complicated than she imagined, and that her very future rests upon discovering the truth about why she was really given away.
